RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller [10ec:8168] (rev 07)The Realtek device is the one used for your wired network. The Atheros device is not in the tables for the latest version of any wireless driver. Perhaps it will work if you do the following: su - modprobe -v ath9k echo "168c 0037" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ath9k/new_id exit The above will work if the driver handles the device, but it is not yet in the tables. Perhaps the Atheros developers will know the status of that device. When replying to E-mail in this list, and most other technical mailing lists, please do not top post. Always put your answer below the quoted material as I did here. Larry
Sorry for top posting, bad habbit No luck with the suggestion and I tried a reboot for luck with no success. -- Tim and Alison Bentley Home@TRARBentley.net
